Novation SN II Editor Intro
Novation SN II Editor & Librarian is designed to control your Novation SN II right from your DAW. With our Editor, you can work with your Novation Nova II / Supernova II Rack or Supernova II Keyboard by the same way you use your virtual instrument plug-ins. Our Editor will recall your patch settings when you open your project and the data will be sent to your Nova II / Supernova II automatically once you open your project. Your synthesizer is always synchronized with your session! The only thing you need to worry, is that you power-up your synthesizer.
Faster workflow

It is now much faster to scroll thru sounds and make tweaks within your DAW. Automate parameters with real hardware control names. The best part is, our Editor saves all the data within the project and when you reopen the project, all of the used data gets sent to your hardware, automatically! No more waiting with loading or transferring hardware data. Save time – welcome Total Recall.

Realistic Bi-directional Graphical User Interface
Our graphical user interface design has been made to make everything from sound design to patch editing as smooth as possible. When you move a slider, push a button or twist a knob in your hardware, software will respond at appropriate layer/part.
Use sections locks with Randomizer function to create complex sounds while keeping the best settings untouched.
Save time, as all the edits are stored within the project, so once the project is opened up again, Total Recall will send the data to hardware automatically.
Patch and Multi mode management
Novation SN II Editor comes with ability to control all 6 / 8 parts from the single plug-in instance. This means, you can have a different patches on different layers and play them at the same time, or individually.
You can send patches from Patch Librarian to your selected Part:
- Click any PART and double click a patch on the librarian to send the patch to the selected part.
- Click different PART to send another patch for different part, simple as that!
Novation SN II Editor and Automation
With FULL version of Novation SN II Editor & Librarian, you can automate almost every parameter right from your DAW without having to remember all of the MIDI CC’s.This can be done easily by setting your DAW automation to Write or Latch mode and then turning the knob from the hardware or the plug-in.
Some of the SysEx parameters are not available due to a lot bandwidth taken from the MIDI cable.
Check DAW Config Guides tab below to learn more about DAW Automation.

Operating system specified settings / limits:
Windows limitations
Since Windows platform CAN NOT share resources between applications, it is important that you disable the MIDI input and output from your DAWs settings which you are intending to use with our Editor. If you leave the port open, our Editor will see it and once you click to use it, it might crash your DAW and you will lose your data. Link down below!
macOS limitations
macOS works “out from the box” with resource sharing, you are good to go once you insert the plugin into your DAW. However, our plugin can cause you a MIDI loop if you leave the port open / unfiltered from your hardware to your DAW. You can set various filters in your DAW.

Reviews
Very good but could be improved, when you select keyboard it defaults back to Rack, minor issue, but a big improvement would be the ability to use it as a stand alone, I do use it through Fruity Loops with Midiox, a real pain to set up..
It just works. I can now integrate my aging hardware into my more modern setup with ease.
Have really enjoyed the software so far. Jani also helped me out when bought the wrong version of the software. Recommended
I cannot use this application because i have the first version of Novation. When i see that i write you an email but you never answer...
SN2X is the best way to control Supernova II in my opinion. I have a lot of fun with it 🙂 Thanks for your work, guys!
Simply awesome. Controls everything!
This plugin is jut what I needed only a few thing to be sorted ,when you try to pick a sound from the category bass or piano or what ever you would like the pluging crashes and your DAW crashes this needs to be sorted so you can narrow down library ,and also if you try to mute the part edit from the plugin then unmute it the nova gives a horribile feedback noise resulting in having to ajust your supernova bank back to your saved settings other than that this vst works perfect
the snx2 editor is great and almost bug free now.i am very happy with the way yani is working .if you find a bug you just report this at the forums and he is fixing it at the next update!!!the online livechat support is pretty good as well!
I think its great, it has minor bugs but pimped up my Nova 2 Keyboard very nice. I love it. waiting for the Arp Adit Section
With continuous support and development, Novation SN II Editor & Librarian is the best investment for your Novation Nova II or Supernova II.

Very disappointed, as I was genuinely excited by the prospect of finally getting to use my Supernova 2 to its full potential. There is ear-deafening feedback when playing any every single patch in performance mode. Until this is fixed, the plug-in is worthless. I’ve tested it through and the feedback is created by the software, I’m 100% positive. I have no idea how that happened, nor how to fix it or, at the very least, how to avoid it. Based on the research I did after noticing this issue, some of the reviews/online comments I read lend me to believe this has been a known issue for a while, yet I haven’t seen/read anything anywhere from the developer explaining how to deal with it or, at the very least, publicly acknowledge it. The Virus HC or JP-80×0, which I also purchased, do have small glitches, but nothing like that! And I’m glad I got these! Don’t get me wrong: the guy has found a niche and I truly wish him the best, considering all the hard work and late hours he must’ve put in and the obstacles he must’ve had to overcome. And the price is very reasonable! I felt he deserved my money and almost felt like I was robbing him by buying the plug-ins at 30% off. This guy is passionate about his work. But from a user experience point of view, this just is unacceptable (we’re not talking about minor glitches here!) By the way, I contacted support (and sales) and haven’t heard anything back; we’re well past the promised 48 hours reply time as of this writing. I only want to be able to enjoy the software, come back here and edit my review to give the plug-in the 5-star review it most surely deserves (deep down).

Had been following this one since the beta was announced. The developer took on my ideas and suggestions gradually working them into the product to really show off what the Nova II can do. I’ve since noticed I only get 6 unison voices (similar to the 6 parts (2 get greyed out when Nova II rather than Supernova II is selected as a useful visual aid for us) so will maybe need to mention that too for a future version. Looking forward to the Arp editor being introduced, but given entire VST plugins (Blue Arp) have been created based upon the Nova arp I expect it will take a little longer to get perfect. Will keep an eye out for any other improvements to suggest, although it’s already better than any other attempts to control these mighty beasts.
